Man at Arms: Art of War

[Drunk Monk]

Thanks for tuning in.

Yeah, it's all about Danny.  The BTS thing is that he's genuinely like that.  He keeps us all centered and focused, sometimes more so than the directors, and he loves the mayhem of it all.  

It's also all about Rebel, because his passion for forging keeps El Rey invested.  Robert is very proud of him (and well he should be - Rebel is amazingly grounded considering his lineage).  Through the show, Rebel gets amazing smithing lessons and Robert gets more programming. 

And just for the record, that bamboo wasn't defenseless.  Have you seen how fast that stuff grows?  It's so invasive that you can get fined for growing it without thick yard-deep plastic containment.  I've grown it at our Macbeth house.  You gotta cull that herd constantly or it'll take over everything.
